Hummingbirds' Migration Patterns Across Continents

Many species of hummingbirds undertake long migrations across continents. Some travel thousands of miles between their breeding grounds 

One of the most remarkable aspects of hummingbird migration is their ability to fly non-stop over vast distances.

Hummingbirds generally migrate during the fall and spring seasons. They begin their southward journey in late summer

Hummingbirds are known to use solar cues and the stars for navigation during migration. They rely on the sun’s position to determine direction

Migration is not learned, but rather an innate instinct in hummingbirds. Even birds raised in captivity

Before embarking on their long journeys, hummingbirds enter a state of hyperphagia, where they consume large amounts of food to build up energy reserves

Migration can be extremely dangerous for hummingbirds. They face challenges such as extreme weather conditions
